To stay true to the Diablo experience, we meticulously translated the finger tapping and swiping controls from mobile into the age-old mouse and keyboard. So stay awhile and listen as we delve into more details on the PC version of Diablo Immortal. In the end, the deciding factor was that we knew many of you would attempt to play this game through an emulator, thus leading us towards building a better experience. On one hand, we felt that we wouldn’t be doing the title justice by releasing a game originally designed for mobile on PC on the other hand, we wanted to make sure the game reached as many players as possible-especially our most dedicated PC fans. The decision to develop Diablo Immortal for PC was one that the team went back and forth on for a large part of the development process. We have gone the extra mile to preserve major elements of the iconic Diablo control scheme so that you can slay monsters in the comfort of your own home chair.

You asked, and we delivered! The team is proud to announce that Diablo Immortal will launch simultaneously on mobile and in Open Beta on PC-complete with cross-play and cross-progression.
